Answer:
λ = 6.5604 x 1016 nm
Explanation:
Given Data:
The energy of the red line in Hydrogen Spectra = 3.03 x 10-19
Formula to calculate Wave length
E= hv
Where E is Energy
h is Planks Constant = 6.626 x 10–34 J s
v is frequency
In turn
v= c/ λ
where c is speed of light = 3.00 x 108 m s–1
λ is wavelength = to find
Solution:
Formula to be Used:
E= hv………………………… (1)
Putting the value v in equation 1
E= h c/ λ…………………… (2)
Put the value in equation 2
3.03 x 10-19 J = (6.626 x 10–34 J s) x (3.00 x 108 m s–1) / λ ……………………….(3)
By rearranging equation 3
λ = (6.626 x 10–34 J s) x (3.00 x 108 m s–1) /3.03 x 10-19 J
λ = 6.5604 x 107 m
The answer is in “m”
So we have to convert it into nm
So for this to convert “m” to “nm” multiply the answer with 109
λ = 6.5604 x 107 x 109
λ = 6.5604 x 1016 nm
